PolaM Jealoiis of the Increasing Nni

THE MALIGNANT HATERS OF LODZ.
A Place Where Ignorance and Supersti
tion is Above Par.
MBKCILESS TV Alt UPON HEBREWS.
Poland at War With Herself and so
Ignorant That she Does' no Know'
It -Minor Mention.
New York, May 12. Details from
Vienna have been received of the attack
on the Jews by a mob of strikers at Lodz)
a town of Poland, seventy-five nffle from
Warsaw. It appears that . the Polish
people of Lodz have been for some time
jealous of the increasing number of Jews
in the woolen and linen mills. " Many of
these were from the interior of Russia,
having been . driven from their former
homes by persecution, and they were
willing to work for very low wages.
This was one of the causes that led to
the strike at Lodz. During Passover
week some enemies of the Jews circu
lated the report that they had stolen
and murdered a Christian child in the
course of the Passover ceremonies. This
report was not believed by the intelligent,
but it created - great excitement among
the ignorant. When the strike began
the Jews continued at work, and this in
creased the irritation against them. For
a long time it has been customary for
the more malignant of the Jew haters in
Lodz and other towns to go about pull
ing the beards and noses - of the Jews.
Many of the Jews submitted meekly un
less the pulling was too severe, when they
retaliated, and an incident of this kind
is jsahr to have been- the immediate
cause of the riot at Lodz. One of the
strikers, meeting a Jew with an unusually
developed nose, gave it an extra twist,
which provoked the Hebrew to madness,
and he resented by making . a desperate
attack on his " persecutor. The latter
raised a cry that the Jews were attacking
the Christiana, and then the strikers to.
the number- of thousands started to
make merciless war on the Hebrews.
The latter defended themselves with the
energy of despair, but the strikers had the
best of the conflict and a number of the
Hebrews were killed, as well as several
of their assailants. The Russian troops,
who were called to the scene, favored
the rioters, and the latter continued to
carry on the attack until wearied out.
Much property was destroyed. ' The
number of lives lost is not stated. In
consequence of the socialistic- labor riots
at Lodz, the authorities have expelled
300 foreign workmen from Lodz. Forty
of the leading rioters, including a num
ber of socialistic agitators, were sen
tenced to long terms in prison. '
V . Not an Off Hand Affair.
Boston, May 12. It is well to bear in
mind, in making any forecast of the
nomination at Chicago next June that
the choice is not likely to be made by an
off-hand count of noses. There will be
many a confidential conference among
the sagacious leaders from the different
states before the balloting begins. ' Del
egates will be weighed as well as counted,
and the counsels of those who come
from democratic states and from states
that can be made democratic will weigh
much more than the counsels of those
who hall from states that are hopelessly
republican. .Preferences and prejudices
will all have to yield at last to the super
ior consideration of success. The ques
tion is not,' Whom can we nominate,
but, whom can we elect.
General Greaser Worse. '
St. Petersburg, May 11. The illness
of General Grosser, prefect of police,
who is suffering from blood poisoning
arising' from the use of an unclean
syringe in administering an injection, Is
increasing. - Mortification in the legs is
spreading, and he is delirious. There
are crowds of anxions inquirers Bur-
rounding his home. ' Seven doctors are
attending the patient. -.' . .
; Sugar Duties lm Cuba.
. Havana, May 11. A committee com
posed of the representatives '.of all the
economic corporations of the island
wired tne Spanish cortea a message
petitioning that the duties on sugar and
alcohol is Cuba be the same as those in
force in Spain. -
Fighting Looked For.
Venezuela, May 11. The situation
in Venezuela is not materially changed.
i-w .. .. . ..V.
insertions continue irom tne govern
ment army. The deserters are princi
pally peasants and laborers recently
conscripted. Several skirmishes have
taken place between the advance posts
of. the revolutionists and the govern
ment forces, but there has been no im
portant fighting reported since the bat
tle at Palito, in which the troops sent
out from Puerto Cabello by Palacio'B
general were defeated. At Laguayra
and Puerto Cabello all is quiet at pres
ent, and there is no longer any difficulty
in discharging or loading cargoes. - The
normal condition of affairs is largely
restored. No definite news has been
received from the seat Tf the revolution.
It is generally supposed, however, that
the cause of rebellion is. progressing"
favorably. In all likhhood the next big
battle will be fought at La Victoria.
The revolutionists surround that town
on Wl sides, preventing communication
between it and Caracas. Palacio's
troops cannot render any aid to the
besieged town. Crespo's men occupy
all the commanding heights around La
Victoria. The lull now existing cannot
last long. Crespo continues to receive
arm 8 and ammunition. When a full
supply shall have been obtained, he will
assume the offensive. Until now he has
been content to maintain his position
around Valencia and La Victoria.
Idaho Miners' Strike.
Spokane, Wash., May 12. The trou
ble between the miners' union and the
mine owners' association in Cceur
d'Alene is assuming a decidedly serious
aspect. United States Marshal Pink
ham, of Boise City, has arrived at
Spokane on his way to the scene of trou
ble with warrants for the leaders and in
junctions against the miners from the
United States district court. The miners
have received several hundred rifles and
a quantity of ammunition. A gentle
man who arrived from Cceur d'Alene
City tonight, saw the rifles being trans
ferred to the steamer on the lake. They
were addressed to the president of the
miners' union. This leave's little room
for doubt that there will eventually be a
conflict between the union miners and
the non-union men, who are soon to be
shipped there., or their guards.. .
Measly Talk.
New Mexico, May 12. Jay Gould,
with all his millions, cannot purchase
health, and that is about all be wishes
to purchase, at present, notwithstanding
which a press telegram says : "It trans
pires that Jay Gould's protracted visit
was not solely for - health. ' The annual
meeting of the Pecos Valley railroad
stockholders was held here, and it is
currently reported that the road has
passed into Gould's control. The offi
cers refuse to talk upon the subject, but
no doubt a deal of some kind is on. This
road is in operation from Pecos, to Eddy,
heading for Albuquerque, where it will
meet the ' road to Dnrango, and thus
make a through line from Galveston to
Santa Fe.: Possession of this road will
give Gould control of all the trade in
southeastern New Mexico."
Frightful Accident.
Dekalb, Mo., - May 12. Fred Samp
son, aged 19 years, met his death while
driving over a temporary bridge near
here with a load of . produce. As he
reached the middle of the structure one
end gave way, the team went back
wards into a deep gully, the young
Sampson was caught by the wagon and
pinned to the earth. His mother and
cousin were in a wagon which proceded
him, and the woman was also seriously
injured. : The cousin ran to the neareet
house for assistance, but before they re
turned Sampson was dead,- having lin
gered in awful agony for twenty minutes
and expiring in the presence of his in
jured mother who was unable to render
him aid. ' - -
Crops In Russia.
. St. Petersburg, May - II. Reports
received by the government regarding
the condition of winter wheat show that
the crop is in a favorable condition in
the Polish, Baltic and the northwestern
and the southeastern provinces, central
Russia, Crimea and the Caucasus. In
Kherson the crop is in an unsatisfactory
condition. In the northeastern prov
inces the grain has not yet sprouted.

Astoria, May 11. The opening day
of the Columbia river centennial cele
bration, on the whole passed off very
pleasantly, and it is the general opinion
that it was a success. The accommoda
tions are entirely inadequate for the
number of visitors and much dissatis- .
faction was expressed by those who were
not fortunate enough to secure a place
to stay. To add to their diecomfort,
many arrived in a cold, drizzling rain,
and had to wander up and down the
city in search of lodgings. The mem
bers of the Pioneer Association suffered
the most, as they are old men and
wuuicii, wno are una Die to put up .with
the hardships and inconveniences which
younger people would not- mind. Most
of them spent the first night sitting on
the chairs and camp . stools of the
steamer. To occupy their time and to
inaxe tne nest ot tneir miserable sitna -tion
and experience, a meeting was
called at 1, which lasted two hours.
The meeting was presided over by John .
W. Cochran, and some excellent ad
dresses were made by the pioneers from
different parts of the state. The speak
ers related their varied experiences and
eulogized the memory of those who are
no longer among the living. . The pro
grasaine -arranged.- for . the ..first day
was not fully carried out on account of
the confusion and disorganized state of
affairs. What was done during the day
has already been stated. In the even
